PHILIPPINE SUPREME COURT DECISIONS

EN BANC

[G.R. No. 2339. May 5, 1905. ]

THE UNITED STATES, Plaintiff-Appellee, v. BALDOMERO RAMOS, ET AL., Defendants-Appellants.

Fernando de la Cantera, for Appellants.

Solicitor-General Araneta, for Appellee.

SYLLABUS


1. ABDUCTION; PRINCIPALS IN CRIME. — The accused who remain outside of the house, in a case of abduction, are responsible as principals, the same as those who enter the house.


D E C I S I O N


WILLARD, J. :


This case has heretofore been dismissed by this court so far as the appellant Eusebio Concepcion is concerned. The violent abduction of Maria Josef is fully proved, as is also the participation of the defendants who stayed outside of the house are equally guilty as principals with those who entered. As to Inocencio Sulit Juan the penalty is increased to fourteen years eight months and one day. In all other respects the judgment against the appellants other than Eusebio Concepcion is affirmed, with one-fourth of the costs of this instance against each of them.

Arellano, C.J., Torres, Mapa, Johnson and Carson, JJ., concur.
